Abstract (en)
A controller receives products history data concerning one or more products possessed by a consumer, which products may be characterized as being within at least one field or category of products relevant to at least some producers. A terminal in communication with the controller may be used for this purpose. At least a portion of the products history data is provided by the controller to producers and, in return, the controller receives communications from one or more of the producers that are based on the portion of the products history data. The controller then provides such communications to the consumer, for example, via the terminal. Any products history data provided to the producers may be provided in an anonymized form. Additionally, desired product data provided to the controller may be similarly used. Aggregated data may also be provided by the controller to the producers.
